1. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising a program stored thereon, that when executed by a processor, causes the processor to execute:
generating a virtual space in response to an operation by a first user to designate content;
setting a first virtual viewpoint corresponding to the first user in the virtual space;
reproducing the designated content in the virtual space;
arranging in the virtual space a first object corresponding to the first user who views the content, based on a position of the first virtual viewpoint; and
arranging in the virtual space at least one of a content-associated object that is pre-associated with the content or a second object corresponding to a second user who viewed the content in the past, at a position irrelevant to either a previous position of a second virtual viewpoint corresponding to the second user in the virtual space or a previous position of the content-associated object in the virtual space, wherein the previous position of the second virtual viewpoint or the previous position of the content-associated object is a position thereof at a time when the second user viewed the content in the past.
